Designer Tips: Style your Outdoor coastal space

The weather is changing as summer approaches and more time will be spent outside enjoying it. Here are 5 ways to style your outdoor coastal space.

1. Fabric. Style your outdoor coastal space just as you would inside. Bring out the fabrics, drape tablecloths and lay out the runners to dress up the space.

2. Potted plants.Planting trees in pots and placing them around your outdoor space will extend the space to the yard with greenery while adding a stylish touch.Mix the size of pots with low and high for a layered feel.

3. Garden stools. Add pull up seating or a side table to your coastal space with garden stools. It's also a great way to bring in a pop of color.

4. Accessories. Placing a collection of jars or shells as accessories in your outdoor space adds a personal touch.

5. Beach blankets & towels. Brighten up a dull space with a bright beach towel or blanket. You can lay it over the back of a chair for an easy pop of color. Cover an old cushion with a beach towel for a bold new coastal look.
